Restorative Bodywork Services

Restorative Bodywork sessions at Moonseed draw from traditional bodywork, somatic practices, indigenous healing traditions, medicinal plants, abdominal work, reflexology, nervous system support, and restorative touch to help the body settle into a greater sense of ease, balance, and connection.

This is deeply attentive work - the kind of care many women realize they have been missing only once they finally receive it. A place to be listened to, tended to, restored, and fully supported for the duration of your session.

Many traditional cultures understood touch, rest, ritual, bodywork, and community care as part of maintaining our humanity. These sessions are rooted in that remembering.

Restorative Bodywork Services Include:

  • Craniosacral Therapy A gentle, trauma-informed, somatic session for nervous system support. Remain fully clothed while light touch allows the body to settle and shift without pressure or force. Ideal for overwhelm, sensitivity, and chronic tension, especially when other approaches haven’t worked.

  • SOBADA: Mayan Abdominal Massage Rooted in the healing traditions of the Masewal Maya and evolved through modern anatomy, this holistic bodywork supports reproductive, digestive, and emotional health through abdominal and sacral massage, traditional bodywork, spiritual healing, castor oil therapy, and self-care practices.

  • Easeful Moontime Massage Focused bodywork intended to ease the physical discomforts of menstruation through therapeutic massage, hip and low back work, nervous system support, and hormone-balancing essential oils.

  • Easeful Menopause Massage Supportive bodywork for the physical and emotional shifts of perimenopause and menopause using layered therapies such as therapeutic massage and lymphatic drainage to encourage relaxation, hormone balance, and nervous system support.

  • Moondrop Therapy Massage A unique blend of massage and reflexology using medicinal plants for the skin in the form of medical-grade essential oils. Inspired by Lakota tradition, oils are gently dropped along the spine and feet to support release, alignment, flow, nervous system restoration, and deeper energetic support.

Moonseed Massage Lymphatic Drainage services are offered in Inverness, IL, serving the Northwest Suburbs including Inverness, Palatine, Hoffman Estates, Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, and Barrington.

Client Testimonials

She is intuitive in her practice and skilled at relieving sore and tense muscles. As someone who struggles with anxiety, Jill made me feel safe, listened to all my concerns and even gave me some tools to help regulate my nervous system. I cannot recommend her enough."

    ~ Brit C.

  • “Jill is an amazing massage therapist in many ways - specifically appreciated is her diagnostic approach to each session we have together. She spends the time to understand where you are at, where your body is at, and for that reason no two sessions have been the same. From the perspective of a small business, Jill is very organized, concise, and consistent in communication which makes it easy to see her, reschedule, etc."

    ~ Cambria B.

  • “I was looking for a true massage therapist. For me, this means someone who actually listens to my issues, attempts different techniques to resolve pain/discomfort, and is successful in relieving said pain/discomfort. Jill checks all of these boxes and more. She is a true gem, and I am so grateful to have found her!!!”

    ~ Kimberly R.

  • “I have been seeing Jill for several years starting with regular deep tissue massage, to more recently, prenatal massage. She is absolutely amazing, both in her skill and as a kind, caring, compassionate human. I always leave her massages feeling physically better, but also with a better overall mood and energy. I cannot recommend Jill enough (but I also want to keep her a secret so I can have her all to myself! :)).”

    ~ Mary C.

  • “Jill is an amazing massage therapist. She knew exactly which areas would be bothering me as a pregnant woman but also discussed my most troubling areas before each session. I LOVE that she has a pregnancy table where I can comfortably be facedown. It’s the most comfortable I have been in this pregnancy. It makes all the difference in the world for me!”

    ~ D.P.
